Model: EAP610-Outdoor

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

I need a wireless access point (for outdoors) that can connect via WiFi 6 to my primary router (actually the AT&T BGW320 fiber gateway), but also allow me to connect a wired Ethernet client to the access point.

The EAP610-Outdoor looks like it could do this.

I believe it only has 1 Ethernet port, which I could use for my wired Ethernet client (which doesnt have WiFi capability).

Will this work?

@Daniel_Siegel

Not as such no.

With a pair of 610's and a controller you could mesh them and use the remote end's ethernet port for what you want. But that isn't cheap and is overkill.

Otherwise, what you really want is just a wifi-ethernet bridge device. I suspect the CPE210 or CPE510 bridge devices could do this, but I don't have any experience with using them with a 3rd party AP (the CPE would go into 'client' mode)...but not sure if they meet your WiFi6 requirement.
